AbstractObjective. To study the pattern of protein expression associated with a predisposition to develop ovarian cancer. Methods. Prophylactic oophorectomy is used to prevent ovarian carcinoma in high-risk populations who have a strong family history of breast/ovarian cancer. In ovarian specimens of these women, the ovarian surface epithelium (OSE), which is tissue of origin of epithelial ovarian cancer, often shows altered morphology, growth patterns and differentiation features that are believed to be preneoplastic. This study has used a proteomic approach, based on two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry, to compare the protein profiles of OSE from women with a history of familial ovarian cancer (FH-OSE), i.e., at least two first-degree relatives with such cancer and/or testing positive for BRCA1 mutations, to those without such history (NFH-OSE). Results. Of >1500 protein spots, there were 8 proteins whose levels were significantly altered in FH-OSE. Three were known ovarian tumor associated proteins, others were novel changes. A number of the alterations seen were accompanied with protein modifications and have not been previously reported. There was a predominance of sequences related to the stress response pathway. Differential expression of selected genes was confirmed by Western blotting and real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. Conclusions. Our findings define the OSE phenotype of women at a high risk of developing ovarian cancer. Protein alterations seen in these tissues may represent an early, irreversible, non-mutational step in ovarian epithelial neoplastic progression and may be potential early and sensitive markers for the evaluation of cancer risk. © 2005 Elsevier Inc.
